Summary
“It’s not too late for you, you know.” Ron had said as they sat on his back porch, watching the sun set over the horizon, almost a year after he handed in his request for retirement.
At Tom’s quizzical look, Slider just laughed and knocked him with his shoulder.
“You’re sixty, not dead,” he said, with a shrug. Then more seriously: “If you wanted to try it again with someone else, you’ve still got time.”
Or, ‘The compass was invented before the clock, because direction was more important than how long it took to get there.’

Brian was staring out the windshield. “Do you trust me?”
“What the fuck kind of question is that?” Dom said.

Summary
Geno had him first. Then Nate. Both of them let him go. Leon finds Sid on the floor of a service corridor wearing his hoodie and shaking, and the only coherent thought in his head is: absolutely fucking ridiculous, both of them, to give this up.
Sidney Crosby has spent every heat since January alone. Leon Draisaitl was never supposed to change that—but Sid stole his hoodie by accident, mistaking it as Nate’s, went into heat in a back corridor, and Leon has never been particularly good at walking away from things that matter.
